Some include answering Philadelphians questions on television, radio and in neighborhood newspapers every month.

Beginning at 6p.m. on Feb. 9, Mayor Kenney will make a monthly appearance on The Nick Taliaferro Show on 900-AM WURD, where he will take questions from listeners for 30 minutes.

“Giving citizens several different direct lines to their Mayor is an important step towards our goal of making city government more accessible to Philadelphians than ever before,”“Giving citizens several different direct lines to their Mayor is an important step towards our goal of making city government more accessible to Philadelphians than ever before,” Kenney said in a press release. “I’ve been committed to constituent service since my earliest days in politics because I believe that I’m best able to serve Philadelphians when I am personally confronted with their needs and concerns. So, I’m very much looking forward to the expansion of #AskKenney.”
